Operation Phoenix 20: A study of living and working in a technological society

In Phoenix 19 we traced the development of worker participation in Britain which took place between 1971 and 1977: eight traumatic years of unmitigated disaster for British management, progressively fighting a rear‐guard action, throughout the entire period, against the encroachment of the bureaucratisation and the politicisation of management. We pick up the story again at that point.
